| Obverse description | The Cuban national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a shield divided into three sections: the upper portion bears a rising sun over a sea between two headlands, the lower-left section shows a diagonal key symbolizing Cuba's strategic position, and the lower-right section displays alternating blue and white stripes. A royal palm tree stands at the centre of the shield, surmounted by a Phrygian cap atop a staff. The shield is flanked by a wreath of oak leaves to the left and laurel to the right, tied at the base. Two five-pointed stars flank the wreath at the lower left and right of the field. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE CUBA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 1 PESO appears in the lower field. |

| Reverse description | A detailed panoramic view of the Castillo de los Tres Reyes del Morro fortress in Havana fills the central field, rendered with fine engraving detail showing the characteristic lighthouse tower rising prominently above the fortified stone ramparts, with turbulent waves breaking against the rocky coastline in the foreground. A small cannon motif accompanied by a five-pointed star appears to the left of the date in the upper field. The date 1984 is inscribed centrally above the fortress composition. The upper peripheral legend reads CASTILLOS DE CUBA, while the lower arc bears the inscription EL MORRO - LA HABANA, identifying the specific monument depicted. |
